Before I start, let me say my "outings" on 60m are rare.
Speaking personally I find the UK allocations totally confusing. I would much prefer to have the WARC 15 kHz wide allocation instead. Many countries now have this. Using modes like WSPR and FT8, very little spectrum is needed.
I know much of this is beyond our control, but I am sure a narrower contiguous band would be preferable to many, especially if this was a worldwide allocation.

At least you can transmit FT8 below 1000Hz on 5357KHz USB. I think it will take a long time before the UK gets the WRC allocation. My feeling is that the british want to do things different. 73, Bas
I heard some rumblings a few months ago that there might be changes to our 5MHz allocations in the works. No idea at this time to what extent.
